Straightforward, flexible, design and brand management
 

You’re head down running your company, building your vision and pursuing your dream. Branding isn’t your speciality, but you still want to be involved. Your business feels like part of you, and it's the fun part.

 

That’s where I come in. I take care of the time‑consuming management and delivery of your branding and communications projects while keeping your vision front and centre. You stay in the driving seat, and I make sure everything is delivered on brief, on time and on budget.

 

I work with sole traders and SMEs who don’t have in‑house communications expertise, helping them establish, manage and grow their brand through practical, effective brand management.

 

With over 30 years’ experience as a designer and design manager, I help organisations shape their brand strategy through brand and design management, project planning, research, and by sourcing and managing the right creative teams.

 

Alongside project delivery, I help build strong brand foundations, giving you the clarity, tools and confidence to define your brand and sustain it long after the project ends.

 

Whatever the size of the project, I keep communication simple and clear to avoid misunderstandings and prevent wasted time and money. Working alongside you, I aim to make the whole process straightforward, stress-free and genuinely enjoyable, smoothing the way from start to finish.

 

Brand foundations

I help businesses build clear, consistent brands by managing the parts that feel overwhelming, from brand profiling and shaping vision and mission statements to customer and staff research. I give you the tools to understand, manage and develop your brand with confidence and consistency, supporting you with communications planning, budget planning and brand building.

Project management 

I keep creative projects running smoothly from start to finish — turning ideas into clear design briefs, sourcing and matching the right suppliers, and managing the relationship so communication stays open and issues are resolved quickly. I handle budgeting, deadlines and benchmarking through to delivery, keeping projects on track, on brief and stress‑free for you.

Creative confidence workshops

My workshops are designed for small business owners and sole traders who want to understand how branding really works, and enjoy the process. These fun, interactive sessions demystify branding and creative project management, giving you the confidence, knowledge and tools to build a brand you’re proud of and work effectively with designers and creative teams.

I'd love to hear from you
